Not quite sure why you blanked this

This is my response to your comment:

Jonas, there is no misunderstanding. If you don't incorporate their suggestions, but thank them, you're rejecting them. I've reviewed lots of FA/FL/Milhist A-class articles, and your responses just aren't what I expect to see from a nominator. End of story. Some experienced editors are significantly more relaxed than I am, in terms of accepting outright rejection when they make comments, but I have already effectively avoided reviewing one list you've developed that I have an interest in, because of your responses to the editors that have already started reviewing it. I won't be on my own, and it won't take you long to work your way through the limited number of willing reviewers. I think I am fairly generous as a reviewer, some may differ on that. But that should ring alarm bells for you. If it doesn't, or if you think my points are misguided, that's fine, you just won't see me reviewing your articles/lists. Good luck.

Peacemaker67, I archived the page, didn't blank it. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 15:48, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

You make some valid points. Note: the article was promoted in 2007. A lot has changed in 7 years since then. I suggest you make the modifications you think are necessary and point to the discussion page in your edit summary. MisterBee1966 (talk) 14:31, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

OK, I will be sure to do that. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 14:55, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Please note: I have contributed little to the article in its current state. My edits on the article were mostly "adminstrative" in nature. MisterBee1966 (talk) 15:45, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Oh, okay. Even so, I don't think anyone really watches the article anymore. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 17:44, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Russo-Georgian War

In British English, which this article is written in, we use "US" with no full stops. American usage dictates full stops ("U.S."), but British usage does not use them. Similarly, we write mister as "Mr", whereas Americans write "Mr." with a full stop. This is not an error. RGloucester 23:24, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

Ahh, okay. I understand, RGloucester. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 23:33, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
No problem. Your review is very thorough. I'll see what UA Victory responds to, and help out if I have time. RGloucester 02:43, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
